They use a really good quality chocolate that is creamy and melty. Then, because of what they put in it. For example the sea salted almond has the perfect balance of chocolate, almonds and a hint of sea salt - it blends so well and the flavors continue to change in your mouth as you eat it so you taste everything. Next, because of their ingredients ~ 100% clean and nothing funky added. Finally their stats ~ I LOVE how much you get! I have learned that Dark Chocolate I can eat in moderation ~ it's really rich and it satisfies. Milk Chocolate I can eat tons of and that is why the smaller bars are good when it comes to that. I know I can't stop with that Toffee Almond Bar - it's amazing! I have pondered the whole running/maintaining thing. It's funny that you say that. When I did my first half I pretty much maintained within the same 3-4 lbs, but, my clothing sizes dropped by 2. I didn't care about the weight so much because I LOVED the physical results. I have really tried to be conscience about how much and what I've eaten this go round so I think that is why I feel like I should be losing. I am honestly pondering switching to a week of CORE next to see if it makes a difference? It's frustrating since I really feel like I am doing everything right. That totally happens to me all the time with making something and wanting something else :) I think both your options sound YUM! Have a great weekend! Danica Hi Alison,

I LOVE ChocoLOVE first because of the taste! They use a really good quality chocolate that is creamy and melty. Then, because of what they put in it. For example the sea salted almond has the perfect balance of chocolate, almonds and a hint of sea salt – it blends so well and the flavors continue to change in your mouth as you eat it so you taste everything. Next, because of their ingredients ~ 100% clean and nothing funky added. Finally their stats ~ I LOVE how much you get!

I have learned that Dark Chocolate I can eat in moderation ~ it’s really rich and it satisfies. Milk Chocolate I can eat tons of and that is why the smaller bars are good when it comes to that. I know I can’t stop with that Toffee Almond Bar – it’s amazing!

I just bake one in the microwave for 4 minutes and scoop out the inside. I guess if you wanted to be really organized you could bake them over the weekend then use them during the week :) Danica Hiya TJ,

Can't wait til I get bagel thins around here! Do you love chocolove because of the nutritionals? It does seem like you get a lot for your buck! I'm not so good at breaking off a piece and stopping though - LOL Regarding your WI - have you considered the running? I've heard it said that distance runners can have a hard time losing weight b/c you HAVE to fuel your run. Not sure if it is true though! I totally agree about what you said at the end. I've been teaching myself to change plans if I'm not hungry for what I had planned. The other day I had made a egg scramble with veggies (which is really yummmy) to go on a pita but I wanted to eat something more sweet. So I saved them and put peanut butter on my pita instead :) Little things like that to help break the rigid mindset I can get caught up in. Great eats! Can’t wait til I get bagel thins around here!

A breakfast panini would be awesome come to think of it. I wonder if they would let me bring in a George Foreman to work and set up camp at my desk. And then I could make sandwiches at work and sell them to my coworkers?? :) I love the Bertolli case (not to mention jealous that you received those sauces) it's like a fun book full of food!
